If you haven’t seen THE WOLVERINE yet, then you haven’t seen the mid-credits teaser scene which means you haven’t seen the first glimpse for the viral marketing for X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST. On a TV in the background you can see a commercial for Trask Industries and for us comic geeks, that was extremely exciting? Exciting as Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson) at the end of IRON MAN or Thanos at the end of THE AVENGERS? No, but X-Men fans everywhere rejoiced because we knew one thing: Trask Industries = Sentinels.

At the SDCC, you had the change to see a model of the Sentinel heads and while the viral site had gone live, there wasn’t much content. That all changed today. Trask Industries is live and full of all sort of goodies. Below is several images from the site as well as the commercial seen at the end of THE WOLVERINE as well as some of the loops from the website. I highly suggest you check out the site as well so that you can catch your first glimpse of the Mutant Detection Devices and the Inhibitor Collars that were so prominent in the comics.

So check out everything below including some really good looks at Peter Dinklage as Bolivar Trask, the inventor of the mutant hunting Sentinels. Let us know what you think in the comments below.

SYNOPSIS: The film will be based on the comic book storyline “Days of Future Past,” which ran in Uncanny X-Men #141 and 142 back in 1981 during Chris Claremont and John Byrne’s run and introduced the idea of an alternate future for Marvel’s mutants that grew out of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants killing an important senator, leading to a future where all mutants are hunted by Sentinels.

X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST is set to hit 2D and 3D theaters on May 23, 2014.
